Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'dried in-shell pecans' to distinguish from fresh and avoid moisture content disputes
• Obtain origin certificates if from Mexico, as USMCA preferences may apply for duty-free entry
• Inspect for shell integrity during customs exam; cracked shells risk reclassification as partially shelled
